I know that Mopologists fight tooth and nail against that idea (really, what else can they do? they're Mopologists), but I hold the Mormon church accountable for every image they put in their publications. They're the ones that claim revelation for all important decisions the church makes. So, since "a picture is worth a thousand words," they're responsibility for doctrinal accuracy is multiplied in the illustrations.
That's why I absolutely LOVE the BoM paintings by Friberg--I used to like them as a TBM, but now I relish them. What do they say about BoM teachings? Horses, steel ... and NO garments! (Suck on that, DCP!)
